5. Adams- Alien and Sedition Acts

The Alien Enemies Act
The Alien Enemies Act

In 1798, congress passed four laws, known as the alien and sedition acts, among those were the Naturalization Act, the Alien Act, Alien Enemies Act, and the Sedition Act. John Adams was the president to sign these acts and the federalist controlled congress passed the acts. The real intent of these laws was to weaken the Democratic - Republican Party.
The first law, the Naturalization act was passed on June 18th. This act made people live in the United States for 14 years before becoming able to be a U.S. citizen instead of 5 years. The second law, the Alien act was passed on June 25th, this act allowed the president to deport any aliens. The third law, the alien enemies act was passed on July 6th. This act allowed the government to imprison and deport any aliens. The fourth and final law, the sedition act, was passed on July 14th. This act stated “That is anyone should commit treason against the government they could be fined and/or put in prison.
The main reason why John Adams didn’t win a second term as president was because a lot of European immigrants were voters and didn’t vote for John Adams because he signed the acts. These acts had a lot of people imprisoned in the end.

7. Jefferson- Barbary Pirates -by Megan Holton
The Barbary Pirates were the group that kidnapped people. They kidnapped the Americans because they wanted to get ransom money for them. The Barbary Pirates also have slave trade. Slave trade was one of the most popular activities that the Barbary Pirates were a part of. The Barbary Pirates kid napped people for ransom until the 19th century. The Moorish Ambassador was the man who stopped the Barbary Pirates from kidnapping more people.

The countries that were involved were America, Libya, and Northern Africa. Northern Africa is where the Barbary Pirates were from. Libya was the place where the "war" took place. America and Northern Africa were the countries that were apart of the "war". They both fought when ever they were able to fight and win.

The place that the event took place at was in Libya. Libya is located in the coast of Northern Africa. The "war" took place in the middle of Libya. The Barbary Pirates fought with America in Libya. They fought for a very long time so the "war" lasted so long.

The year when the "war" took place in was the 14th century. The Barbary Pirates didn't recover until the end of the 14th century. They didn't recover until the 14th century because when they were in the war they got so badly "hit". The people took so long to recover also because so many people died.

This event effected Europe for a very long time. The Pirates attacked America and it took them a long time to recover from it. Their people had taken a long time to get over this because they needed help to get the town back into order after everything happened.
